Time-varying Plasmapause and Electron data - April 2001

Visualizations by Tom Bridgman Released on December 5, 2005
This is another view of the plasmapause and electron content data for the April 11, 2001 time frame (similar to ID 3312). This point of view is shifted slightly to the sunlit side of the Earth to present a better view of the plume formation.
